Sorry to see Msucollector4 go, but it had to happen. Bad planning on the part of the PM should result in that PM's termination. Hope we do better next week. We'll have to work just as hard as we did on the hockey one, the opposition is very good.

Go team Boomo Goes the Dynamite!

Perfectly said...Lets look forward to our next task. Time to destroy again.

There's no good work team about it. You took control, did an excellent job and damn near single handidly won this for us. Great work army.

Thanks for the kind words but I did get some great ideas...I just set deadlines, put everything together once we had some ideas, made the cards, thought of how the presentation should look like, and ran with it

Dang it! Our competition knows the difference between week and weak. He has already proven to be a smarter project manager than his team's previous one.

Donald BOHICA - For today's challenge we've teamed up with Press Pass sports cards. The challenge is to create a base checklist, and subsets for the upcoming 2014 Press Pass Football release that will excite fans. Don't forget to include autographs, and parallels.

This should be an interesting one for sure. Okay, boss man, let's do this.

Press Pass '14 is not going to be your typical Press Pass. If you avoid Press Pass because you don't want cheap looking base autos with red and blue parallels or subsets like "fantasy team." then this is your year to buy back in. That's the old Press Pass...time for something new!

Each base will also have an on-card autograph version similar to the base, a team color autographed parallel /100, and then an Inscription parallel /14 (for 2014) or fewer. Each Inscription will be its own unique 1/1 like the Inscriptions that were in Press Pass' Parks and Recreation set, so this will give the Inscriptions added intrigue (for an example look at the 25 different Ron Swanson/Nick Offerman Inscriptions)!

There will be three different subsets to collect in this year's product, Defensive Award Winners, McShay/Kiper Mock Draft Jerseys, and Frozen in Time.

Defensive Award Winners will focus on some of college's all time greats from the other side of the ball, who typically don't get as much love as their offensive peers. The set will focus on 30 subjects who were winners of either the Jim Thorpe Award, Dick Butkus Award, or the Chuck Bednarik Award, and the players will be pictured with their trophy on the front.

The McShay/Kiper Mock Draft will be a jersey subset of the 32 players each analyst mocks in the first round. So 64 jersey cards across two sets. Both sets will have a print run of /100 for each card. The first 25 cards of each run will be patches/tags/logos/etc.

Finest took memorable professional plays and immortalized them with an autograph, Frozen in Time does the same but on acetate, whose harder stock and translucence works with the Frozen concept. The cards will feature a famous play/game with an on-card autograph from one or more players who were involved in that memorable moment. Some of our ideas for games/moments to include are:
- Josh Heupel upsets Florida
- Dexter Jackson and Appalachian State upset Michigan
- 2013 Iron Bowl Auburn vs Alabama kick return
- 2006 Ohio State vs Michigan
- 2006 Rose Bowl Texas vs USC (Vince Young makes one of the greatest drives in CFB history)
- The Boise State Fiesta Bowl Play (Statue of Liberty)
- Flutie TD vs Miami
- RG3 and Johnny Football in their wins over Oklahoma that got them the Heisman
- Cal v Stanford '82 (aka "The Play")

Whether you've collected Press Pass Football or not over the years, we think 2014 is the year that'll get you excited about our product. We're bringing ideas old and new together to make the best product possible, and we think it could well be the best set you see in 2014!

Thanks! I wish Frozen in Time was a real thing...2000 Finest is one of my favorite subsets ever and it just seemed like a college version would be perfect! I'm really happy with our team's participation this week, we had a lot of great ideas from nearly everyone!
